Genesis - Chapter: 8


8:1	And God remembered Noah, and every living thing, and all the cattle that was with him in the ark: and God made a wind to pass over the earth, and the waters asswaged;
8:2	The fountains also of the deep and the windows of heaven were stopped, and the rain from heaven was restrained;
8:3	And the waters returned from off the earth continually: and after the end of the hundred and fifty days the waters were abated.
8:4	And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
8:5	And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth month, on the first day of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
8:6	And it came to pass at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ark which he had made:
8:7	And he sent forth a raven, which went forth to and fro, until the waters were dried up from off the earth.
8:8	Also he sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from off the face of the ground;
8:9	But the dove found no rest for the sole of her foot, and she returned unto him into the ark, for the waters were on the face of the whole earth: then he put forth his hand, and took her, and pulled her in unto him into the ark.
8:10	And he stayed yet other seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ark;
8:11	And the dove came in to him in the evening; and, lo, in her mouth was an olive leaf pluckt off: so Noah knew that the waters were abated from off the earth.
8:12	And he stayed yet other seven days; and sent forth the dove; which returned not again unto him any more.
8:13	And it came to pass in the six hundredth and first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from off the earth: and Noah removed the covering of the ark, and looked, and, behold, the face of the ground was dry.
8:14	And in the second month, on the seven and twentieth day of the month, was the earth dried.
8:15	And God spake unto Noah, saying,
8:16	Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.
8:17	Bring forth with thee every living thing that is with thee, of all flesh, both of fowl, and of cattle, and of every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth; that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply upon the earth.
8:18	And Noah went forth, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him:
8:19	Every beast, every creeping thing, and every fowl, and whatsoever creepeth upon the earth, after their kinds, went forth out of the ark.
8:20	And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
8:21	And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
8:22	While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.


8:1	Now God remembred Noah and euery beast, and all the cattell that was with him in the Arke: therefore God made a winde to passe vpon the earth, and the waters ceased.
8:2	The fountaines also of the deepe and the windowes of heauen were stopped and the raine from heauen was restrained,
8:3	And the waters returned from aboue the earth, going and returning: and after the ende of the hundreth and fiftieth day the waters abated.
8:4	And in the seuenth moneth, in the seuenteenth day of the moneth, the Arke rested vpon the mountaines of Ararat.
8:5	And the waters were going and decreasing vntill the tenth moneth: in the tenth moneth, and in the first day of the moneth were the toppes of the mountaines seene.
8:6	So after fourtie dayes, Noah opened the windowe of the Arke, which he had made,
8:7	And sent forth a rauen, which went out going forth and returning, vntill the waters were dried vp vpon the earth.
8:8	Againe he sent a doue from him, that he might see if the waters were diminished from off the earth.
8:9	But the doue found no rest for the sole of her foote: therefore she returned vnto him into the Arke (for the waters were vpon the whole earth) and he put forth his hand, and receiued her, and tooke her to him into the Arke.
8:10	And he abode yet other seuen dayes, and againe he sent forth the doue out of the Arke.
8:11	And the doue came to him in ye euening, and loe, in her mouth was an oliue leafe that she had pluckt: whereby Noah knewe that the waters were abated from off the earth.
8:12	Notwithstanding he wayted yet other seuen dayes, and sent forth the doue, which returned not againe vnto him any more.
8:13	And in the sixe hundreth and one yeere, in the first day of the first moneth the waters were dryed vp from off the earth: and Noah remoued the couering of the Arke and looked, and beholde, the vpper part of the ground was drie.
8:14	And in the second moneth, in the seuen and twentieth day of the moneth was the earth drie.
8:15	Then God spake to Noah, saying,
8:16	Goe forth of the Arke, thou and thy wife, and thy sonnes and thy sonnes wiues with thee.
8:17	Bring forth with thee euery beast that is with thee, of all flesh, both foule and cattell, and euery thing that creepeth and moueth vpon the earth, that they may breede abundantly in ye earth, and bring forth fruite and increase vpon ye earth.
8:18	So Noah came forth, and his sonnes, and his wife, and his sonnes wiues with him.
8:19	Euery beast, euery creeping thing, and euery foule, all that moueth vpon the earth after their kindes went out of the Arke.
8:20	Then Noah built an altar to the Lord and tooke of euery cleane beast, and of euery cleane foule, and offered burnt offerings vpon the altar.
8:21	And the Lord smellled a sauour of rest, and the Lord said in his heart, I will hencefoorth curse the ground no more for mans cause: for the imagination of mans heart is euill, euen from his youth: neither will I smite any more all things liuing, as I haue done.
8:22	Hereafter seede time and haruest, and colde and heate, and sommer and winter, and day and night shall not cease, so long as ye earth remaineth.
